    "And" is a very strange word to begin a thought, which is why I always thought the opening line to the Goo Goo Dolls song "Iris" was peculiar:

    "And I'd give up forever to touch you"

    Can you think of any other songs with lyrics that begin with the word "and"?

    Surely not remixed by; the multis are gone, no?

    There was a 2 cd deluxe edition of Forever Changes with the original album and an alternate mix that I thought was done by Steve. Now that I look at the credits, he remastered the alternate mix, (disc 2 tracks 2 to 11). Sorry for the confusion.

    "Closer To The Heart" - Rush. Yeah, it was cited in those earlier threads, but none of those berks actually quoted it. :)

    I thought the first line of that song was "Oh yeah, alright, are you gonna be in my dreams tonight?"

    Nitpick #1—As Laineycrusoe correctly points out, The End begins with these thought-provoking gems: “Oh yeah, all right. Are you gonna be in my dreams tonight?”
    Nitpick #2—The tag lyrics are actually, “And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.” (Although yours are decidedly jazzier!)
